Sorry D.B. what is a RAP? I'm going to feel an idiot for asking. I just know I will!

Hi All,
Not been around for sometime, Life!
As I have always said, the one and only way to get more folks interested would be a rule and playing aids set. Save money by not having the model ships....
Sorry Jonas,
Still would call you a master. Will try your ideas on swallow-tail cutting.

A Swallow flag is hard to do at 1-1200 scale. The Swedish flag has 3 tails, this is very hard too do. Glad you are so good at doing them Rob. This poor flag-maker found the Swedish 3 tail flag to...
Nice one Jonas.
Like the flag. I find making the tails very hard to do. I did not make the tails in the end, just left them out.

Hi All,
If you go onto Rob Langton's site- 1-1200 Napoleonic ships. Click on 1-1200 scale buildings. Go to the bottom of the page, you will find a number of pages called "Diagrams" Metal, Resin 1 &...
Kristian,
Lots of tips on this site. Lots of folks who would be happy to help. We all have our frist ship in our fleets. Don't let any one put you off. Enjoy this great part of wargaming/modelling....
Kristian,
Thanks for posting your work. I love your islands. Hope you will not think me rude. I would try spraying your rat-lines black. In life they would have been tared (so would be black) and...
I would use a fan shape template. and put the full broadside area in the middle. The two half broadside areas to the sides. Cut the point bit of the fan to match the fort base shape so it can rap...
My thoughts (or forts).
Castles come in two types. High walls and towers pre- cannons, but still around. Or the "Vauban" short but very thick walls and angled glades. Also the bigger the fort then...
Going to look now

Hi Guy's,
look I'm on your side. Love Ticonderoga in 25 mm scale. It's a thing of beauty. But it is what the battle/game is all about, not as I said above a fame to a game. Jonas, You have seen my...
Nice Models Julian,
Its the scales? The first one does not say. I think the 2nd one is 1-610 Am I right????
Rob,
I think that the rows of Langton house's would work for the town. As for Mount...
Thanks Julian :thumbsup:

Julian,
Glad I can help you. Just wish to help. Thanks for the info about the "Meridian" model. As you know I have gone to smaller scale ships. But the idea of one or two 1/700 scale ships does...
She is vary nice I love the model. I also love the rigging. Do you get the masts and rat-line with the model? Just one thing. At "Trafalgar" Nelson ordered all iron hoops/bands around the lower masts...
Hi Jim,
You still have that Bl~#*y peg under the ship! That is the problem. Ed did show some years back the thick clear bases that may work with the above ideas

Thanks Rob,
This is understood. We all wait and like to get our promotion's and medals (me too!). I do not add my posts to new members etc, as I feel it looks as if I'm clocking-up posts for...
On that one you are right Rob. As Paul said above most members do not last more than 3 years. I have seen many folks come and go in my time on this site. I have seen posts with only a "Smiley face"...
It should be for what you post and for how long. Not how many posts. It is easy to post the numbers!

Hi All,
This I think helps the over-all look of the ships. It comes away from the token/toy look of the ships. From the beginning this has been one of the problems with the whole system. The one...
Hi David,
Learnt today that the event I was doing has been cancelled. So I'm on for Gosport again (missed last year). Seeing a friend on Friday. If he is interested and free, could we have a table...
